2025/02/05

Today we have the epitome of a "lifer" in the form of Josh James, the guitarist from Stick To Your Guns. He's also played in a ton of other bands like Evergreen Terrace, Casey Jones, 18 Visions and much more but he's on today to speak about his time in STYG as well as dig into Fat Wreck Chords punk, thriving in chaos and removing ego from what your art is (as much as one can). Josh is an open and honest dude so this discussion was a breeze and I hope you enjoy!Listen to the Official Outbreak

Kevin Palmer from TrustCompany

2025/01/08

Today we throw you a bit of a curveball as usually we speak about punk/hardcore/metal and related DIY type artists but in this episode we cover something called, Nu Metal. Don't let that put you off because Kevin Palmer from TrustCompany isn't like the others...his band rules. TrustCompany came out at a time where every major label was jumping on this craze and TrustCompany got thrust into the limelight with a major label deal, radio play, MTV spins and everything but what makes this story unique is

It's that special time of the year where we reflect back on our personal highlights from the year and take stock over what we actually LIKED this year and fortunately for us, I navigate these muddy waters with two of my best friends Jeremy Bolm (Touche Amore, The First Ever Podcast, Secret Voice Records) and Joey Cahill (Wanna Hear It Records).

Aaron Carnes from “In Defense of Ska”

2024/12/04

Anytime I can welcome an author on the show, I do but this one was a little contentious because Aaron Carnes offered up a full throated argument on why ska shouldn't get overlooked as a musical force. I personally think that ska, for the most part, is pretty awful (with some notable exceptions) but Aaron's book had me do a double take. We go into it here on this weeks show and truthfully, it was a pleasure. Aaron is incredibly thoughtful about his historical analysis of the subculture and we discuss

We welcome Stin from Chat Pile onto the podcast this week for a few reasons. One of them being that their new record absolutely RIPS and you should listen to it now, it's called "Cool World" out on Flesner Recordings. Another reason is that he's an incredibly thoughtful and insightful human being about what art he's creating as well as the fact that ANYONE is paying attention to his band is a privilege. We discuss the best job he's ever had, making "art" for a living and what most people perceive
